Electro-Harmonix C9 Organ Machine

Another in EHX’s line of keyboard emulators, the C9 allows you to sound like one of any of 9 different organs. It can actually be fairly convincing especially with the click option to mimic that percussive organ sound. Since it is not best suited for single note instruments, its applications are limited, but it sure is a really cool pedal.

HornFX Review

Interface: 3/5Although the pedal is surprisingly well laid out pedal, the organ selector knob can be confusing and incredibly hard to manipulate accurately on a dark stage.

Versatility: 2/5Within its style of pedal, this is a versatile machine. But it is important to remain aware that this thing only does organ sounds. That being said, how could 9 choice of organ sounds not be enough?

Clarity of Effect: 5/5There is no doubt of this pedal’s effect when the organ knob is turned all the way up. The effect rings through clearly, and in some settings, quite convincingly.

Complexity: Medium

Live application: 1/5In any situation where you need to make you hon sound like an organ, this is the pedal for you. However, there are a few issues with tracking speed, as this pedal is more suited to chordal playing than lines.
